Album Notes & Community Reviews

Bridging the gap between their first two full-length albums, this EP finds the riot grrrl pioneers injecting heavy, repetitive electronic beats into their feminist punk ethos. 'From the Desk of Mr. Lady' is driven by lo-fi drum machines, distorted guitar lines, and unabashedly political lyricism.
